Wednesday's Web Wanderings and Wonderings

Here are a few articles, blogs, videos and ideas I came across on the web over the last week. Check them out:

1) Who are the upcoming Catholic Priests? NBC posted this article "'I'm not going to see Pearl Jam anymore'; seminarians prepare for life as priests." Found here.

2) The Deer's Cry for St. Patrick's Day recommended by a pastor friend that had seen it used in a Synod conference meeting.

3) My husband has watched this video this week many times over. It is just hilarious!

4) The folks from GMM class pointed us this last week to this great "Easter is Coming" video

5) Have you heard of or watched any part of the new TV series The Bible on the History Channel? It started on March 3 and had over 13 million viewers tune in. Here is an article about the series.

6) Are you a runner or walker? Here is a link to information on a 5K that will take place in Cambridge on May 5th and benefits a great cause! Ministry at the Escuintla Garbage Dump in Guatemala. Find more info here.

7) The Spiritual but not religious conversation lives on. Check out this blog.

8) Facebook Thumbs Up From The Huffington Post

9) SAVE THE HISTORIC COMET THEATER!! Check out the Comet's Kickstarter campaign. Maybe theater is close to your heart and you would want to be a part of saving our local theater. As of the posting of this they are up to $12,976 out of the $80,000 they need. It hasn't even been a week!

10) A good friend of mine is hosting a 5K fundraiser that will support a ministry project that is near and dear to both her and my heart - The Escuintla Garbage Dump in Guatemala. You can sign up to be a part of this family fun event if you live near the Cambridge, MN area. Otherwise you can spread the word to your family and friends who are! Click here for more information.

  1. Hi Elizabeth ... hope this note finds you well. One of the questions on your blog was about the new TV series on The Bible. We have a regular Saturday morning bible study group that we've hosted for year and we just started a study on The Bible TV series. It's been really good so far ... we're only one week in. There are some great resources available for leaders and participants. Of course there's always a Hollywood take on any movie or series, but that also opens up the discussion even more. Have a great week and keep up the great work on your blog. Thanks Steve

    1. Thanks for the note Steve. We have been watching it as a family and our almost 10 year old is so into it and we have been reading scenes from the Bible as we watch and it really has been a really "cool" thing for our family.
